See I absolutely LOVED the first season of Mind of Mencia, it was hilarious but once I realized that he was stealing others material I lost all respect for him, I highly doubt it was staged because as Gooner said the only thing this will do is hurt Mencias career and always have people second guess him. I completely understand why Rogan is so upset, comics have to work their butts off for those jokes, in person I'm a pretty funny guy and I've tried to sit down and work out a comedy routine and I couldn't do it, you can't just play off other people when you're on stage, you have to work and re-work the taglines and setups until you get the perfect reaction from the crowd, laughter. Mad props to Joe and everyone else that stood up to him.
